Margaret Ann Thompson's Obituary
THE VILLAGES, Florida - Margaret Ann (Dolan) Thompson, 85, entered into eternal life, Sunday, April 28, 2013. Born in Upland, PA she was the daughter of the late Martin and Margaret (Collins) Dolan. Margaret retired after 28 yrs of service as a burser for Swathmore College in Swathmore, PA.
She was a woman who was kind and generous. Her motherly nature was a comfort and inspiration to her several nieces and nephews. She always possessed a desire to help others as her volunteer work in her church testified. Margaret enjoyed bible study, playing golf, gardening, cards and was a great listener. She loved to travel with Hawaii being her favorite destination. She was a fun person to be with as she had a knack of being able to laugh at herself and enjoy a good joke.
Margaret came to The Villages with her late husband Arthur from Millsboro, DE in 2000. She was a Roman Catholic and was a member of St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church, Summerfield. Sadly, she was predeceased by her husband of (57) years, Arthur J. Thompson in 2006.
Margaret leaves several nieces and nephews and grand nieces and nephews.
